James Doohan gets a star

As just about anyone who reads this can probably guess, I was a bit of a Trekkie as a kid, including being guilty of owning (and reading) at least two Star Trek Technical/Engineering Manuals. Thus, even though shows like Stargate SG-1 and Lexx have long since replaced Star Trek in my "favorite sci-fi shows" list, finding out that James Doohan recently got a Hollywood star is pretty darn neat. Finding out that he's just been diagnosed with Alzheimer's, on the other hand, is saddening.

Jason at Blogging.la has posted some pictures of the unveiling of the star, including a few of other cast members. (via BoingBoing)
